Master Your Time

Time is measured by the clock and by the calendar.

Many of us who bemoan the lack of time do so because we're not effectively using the time at our disposal.

I fear I often fall into that category because I bemoan the lack of hours to work on a book  rather than effectively using the 5 minutes here and the 10 minutes a couple of hours later.

Inspiration to Use Time Effectively

Maybe some quotations from those who made the most of their time will inspire you—and me too.

"Make use of time, let not advantage slip." ~ William Shakespeare

"Time = life; therefore, waste your time and waste of your life, or master your time and master your life." ~ Alan Lakein

"Don’t be fooled by the calendar. There are only as many days in the year as you make use of. One
man gets only a week’s value out of a year while another man gets a full year’s value out of a week." ~ Charles Richards

"The key is in not spending time, but in investing it." ~ Stephen R. Covey

"Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses any. It is wonderful how much can be done if we are always doing." ~ Thomas Jefferson

"This time, like all times, is a very good one, if we but know what to do with it." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Takeaway Truth

Yes, this is a good time, and I know what to do with it so I'll get back to writing.
